Escorted by a Nintendo representative, I walked upstairs to the Wii U area overlooking Nintendo’s entire booth. A row of hands-on demos were before me and what Nintendo called The Zelda HD Experience was one of my first stops.

The mention of Link riding a train made The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks sound like some sort of a spin-off. Ever since then, barely anyone has spoken of it and even Nintendo have refrained from releasing much information on the game.
